Thanks Jimmy D!!!
How many zeros in a billion?
This is too true to be funny.
The next time you hear a politician use the
word 'billion' in a casual manner, think about
whether you want the 'politicians' spending
YOUR
tax money.
A billion is a difficult number to comprehend,
but one advertising agency did a good job of
putting that figure into some perspective in
one of its releases.
A.
A billion seconds ago it was 1959.
B.
A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.
C.
A billion hours ago our ancestors were
living in the Stone Age.
D.
A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.
E.
A billion dollars ago was only
8 hours and 20 minutes,
at the rate our government
is spending it.
While this thought is still fresh in our brain, let's take a look at
Louisiana Senator,
Mary Landrieu (D),
is presently asking the Congress for
$250 BILLION
to rebuild
what does it mean?
A.
Well, if you are one of
484,674 residents of
(every man, woman, child),
you each get $516,528.
B.
Or, if you have one of the 188,251 homes in
C.
Or, if you are a family of four, your family gets
$2,066,012.

STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY?
Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago,
and our nation was the most prosperous in the world.
We had absolutely no national debt, had the largest middle class in the world, and Mom stayed home to raise the kids.
What happened?
Can you spell 'politicians!'
And I still have to
'press 1'
for English.
I hope this goes around the
at least 100 times
What the hell happened?????
